Family, Love Is My Everything

Chapter 33

Next day morning in Mumbai; India!
At Murthy Mansion, 8:00 am

Everyone was running here & there for preparation. Navya went to her twin 's room to call her but when she raised her hand to knock, it was open. She finds it a little strange because Nandini likes her privacy & locks her room everytime;
She enters & saw no one, her clothes was also not there. Suddenly she notices a paper on the study table , she took & read it. She was shocked would be an understatement, she was ashamed & guilty by the way they have been treating her and slowly her tears were streaming; she sat on her bed for a while. Later she got up & went down while thinking about one thing
What had Aliya done??

Navya came downstairs and started calling everyone;
Nav - Amma, appa, bhai kaha hai sab yaha aaiye
Ishi - kya hua bachha?
Abhi - tum ro rahi thi kya?
Nav - aap pehle malhotras ko yaha bulaiye!
Ram - par baat kya hai?
Nav - aap pehle bulaiye ! important h?
Ram - thik h! After sometime, they came
Cab - kya hua?
Ishi - navya ne bulaya?
Navya gave a letter to her appa to read loudly.. ......

The Letter

First of all, this is Nandini! Mai ghar chhod ke ja rahi hu quki mujhe yeha nhi rehna hai. Mai bohot pehle hi chali jaati par kisi ne bola college khatam hone ke baad. U know I was waiting but phir bich me aapka ladla manik aa gya! My dear parents, bachpan se aaplogo ne mujhe nannies ke saath 24/7 rakh diya. Mere baare me kuch pari nhi thi , meri life jail ban gayii thi. Meri siblings ke saath meri rapport achhi nhi thi, unhe sirf fab 5 ki parwah thi. Phir aliya aai! Pata nahi usne apne bhai ke khilaf kya bola jo aap sab ne believe kr liya. Phir mujhe koi milta jo meri family ban gayi. Mujhe pata chala mother & father 's love, care, ek bhai jo mere liye kuch bhi kar sakta h. Aliya ne meri, apne bhai or apne parents ki life's barbaad ki h so I'm begging you to confess the truth about everything. U made my school days also hell for me. At last , I don't love manik nor I have ever like him, I have always seen him as a nobody. U care too much for Manik that u all forgot that there is someone named as Nandu. U never ask me or even discuss about something. U just told me about everything. About myself u all don't know anything ? I already have someone in my life and also have some amazing friends who meant the world to me. I have families by heart . I don't need u all in my life. That 's it!!!
Hope to never see you again.
Goodbye,
Nandini.

After reading the letter loudly, everyone was ashamed & guilty for their behaviour. But it's too late, she is gone.
Muk ( with tears in her eyes) - we have done very wrong. To Aliya - pls tell us the truth. Aliya was crying nonstop because she was feeling guilty for what she has done!
Ali - I'm sorry, so sorry. Maine starting se hi jhoot bola tha, I was jealous aur attention paane ke chakkar me jhoot bola ki my parents & brother abuses & neglect me. Phir school me meine hi boys ko manipulate kiya , yeh bolke ki I've seen Nandini talking to Harshad. Mujhe pata hai ki tum sab ka bhai se achha relation nhi h Qki nandini mera sach jaan gyi thi. I'm so sorry mujhe nhi pta tha voh ghar chhod ke chali jayegi. Everyone was shocked to hear but,
Ishi - glti toh tumne ki h beta par tumhre vajah se nandu ghar chhod ke nhi gayi hai vo hamare negligence ke vajah se gayi hai. Elders are ashamed of their doings especially Ishita Murthy! Navya was crying hugging abhi
Cab - kissi ko pata tha ki nandu manik se pyaar nhi karti? Maine notice kiya tha nandu bahut distant behave karne lagi thi, jada baat bhi nhi karti thi.
Ali - mujhe thik se nhi pata shayad nandu manik ko like nhi karti thi because manik ke aate hi vo Bohut awkward ho jaati thi, aisa lagta tha ki Vha se bhaagna chahti ho. No Offense Manik!
Dhr - Ab mujhe yaad aaya ki rakhi wale din vo ek extra rakhi laayi thi manik ko tie karne ke liye? Humne laga vo mazak kar rahi thi but she never saw manik in that light. She always bro zoned him.
Neyo - jo hona tha wo hogaya hai. Now ishu chalo room me ja kar rest kar lo, hum baad me baat karenge.
Cab - guys let's go to nandu 's room. I have not seen her room.
Nav ( chuckles with tears in her eyes) -  chalo............
Youngsters leaves and Murty 's went to their room . Raj Neyo went to the guest room.....
Neyo - Bohut galat hua bachhi ke saath . Humne kabhi dhyan hi nhi diya uspar. Raj, tum koi detective ko jaante ho jo nandu ko dhundne me madad kar sakta h?
Raj - hmm, I'll call him and let him know....

Fast forward ; at night
At the airport, the Dazzlers ( except nanz) & their parents are standing at the front
Man - we will come afterwards.
Lady - take care of my daughter. I'll miss you all
Ka - I'll take care of her, u don't have to worry
Dazz - we will miss you too
Man - have a safe journey & hugs the kids & males. Lady hugs the kids & females.
Sa - after bro 's exams, u two will come to us.
Man - sure ! Now bye bye. Lady also waves them. Then, they board the jet & flies away... The couple also leaves.

After long, they landed in the airport, they got down with their luggages &
Nan - sid! He looks up to see who but got crushed into a hug . He got startled but soon relaxed by sensing his gf 's touch. He wrapped his arms around her tightly
Nan ( mumbles into his chest) - I miss you so much
Sid ( kiss the top of her head) -
I miss you too Jaan. They stayed in that position.
Man 1 - now, leave my daughter, I also want to hug her
Man 2 - yaa right! Wait a minute ( he glares at the man 1 ) She is not only Your Daughter? She is ours also. Now sidni had parted the hug &  met the rest of the Dazzlers. Now they are watching two old people fighting like kids and was controlling their laughs. The ladies shook their heads in disbelief. There was one more couple left. They move towards Nanz. The man had opened his arms for her
Nan - I missed you dad. He wrapped his arms around her and
Man 3 - I missed you too . Nanz hugged the lady
Nan - I missed you too Mom.
Lady 3 - I missed you too bachha.
An - I am also here Mom, u don't miss me & pouts.
Lady 3 - here comes my drama king, my son, come hug your mom and opens her arm for him and he hugged her mom & dad.
Lady 1 - hush now ,let's go now or do you two want to stay here.
Lady 2 - let's go Poorvi, leave them here. Two ladies leave them alone and went to the car talking to each other. Kids already settled in the car.
Man 2 - arey wait! We are also coming & dragged the Man 1 with him, but the ladies didn't wait for them.
Soon they settled in the car and was waiting for their husbands.
Man 1 - Uff! U should have wait for us.
They also settled in the car and drives off.....

After sometime they reached the mansion, entered inside & leave to their respective rooms to rest. They are jet lagged, so they have gone to rest...

Now, I'll give a leap of 7 years. Please vote for it & see you soon.

With Love,
